This step kicks off the development process by launching the NPOA-SSF, making stakeholders aware of the NPOA-SSF, what will happen during the development process and how they can be involved.

Process

• 2.1.1 Plan the launch
• 2.1.2 Publicize the event
• 2.1.3 Hold the event
• 2.1.4 Continue raising-awareness

Output(s)

• NPOA-SSF development launch event
• Other NPOA-SSF awareness-raising activities

This step develops an intervention logic for the NPOA-SSF. It starts with clearly identifying the problems to be addressed by the NPOA-SSF and therefore what the overall objectives should be.

The intervention logic process then sets out what the main activities might be, and how the outputs will lead to positive outcomes for small-scale fisheries.

Holding a workshop for this purpose enables many stakeholders to contribute directly.

Process

• 2.2.1 Develop the problem statement and establish the NPOA-SSF objectives
• 2.2.2 Develop the NPOA-SSF intervention logic

Output(s)

• Small-scale fisheries problem statement and NPOA-SSF objectives
• NPOA-SSF intervention logic

In this step, the NPOA-SSF intervention logic from Step 2-2 is shared with the National Platform and other stakeholders to ask their views.

Process

• 2.3.1 Plan the consultation
• 2.3.2 Undertake the consultation
• 2.3.3 Collate and review feedback
• 2.3.4 Document the consultation process

Output(s)

• A revised NPOA-SSF intervention logic
• Stakeholder consultation report (optional)

This step will develop a logframe for the NPOA-SSF.

It is based on the objective, outcomes, outputs and activities from the intervention logic (see Step 2-2), with any revisions resulting from the consultation. For the logframe, more detail is developed, including quantified targets and indicators for monitoring the NPOA-SSF’s progress.

Process

• 2.4.1 Develop the logframe
• 2.4.2 Develop the monitoring, evaluation, and learning framework

Output(s)

• NPOA-SSF logframe
• Monitoring, evaluation, and learning framework

This step will produce a draft of the NPOA-SSF document. The document will provide further details on the activities in the logframe (see Step 2-4), in particular on what will be done, by who and by when. It will also contain information from some of the earlier (Stage 1) steps, including a summary of the SSF profile (Step 1-2), governance review and gap analysis (Step 1-4) and NPOA-SSF rationale (Step 1-5).

Process

• 2.5.1 Draft the NPOA-SSF

Output(s)

• A draft NPOA-SSF for validation and approval in Step 2-6

The draft NPOA-SSF is presented to the National Platform members and small-scale fisheries stakeholders, their feedback reviewed and the draft amended accordingly.

Process

• As in Step 2-3: Stakeholder Consultation

Output(s)

• Revised draft NPOA-SSF
• Consultation report on NPOA-SSF

The final step in the development of the NPOA-SSF is to validate the plan and publish the document, which is then ready to be implemented in Stage 3.

Process

• 2.7.1 Finalize the NPOA-SSF
• 2.7.2 Endorse the NPOA-SSF
• 2.7.3 Publish the NPOA-SSF
• 2.7.4 Launch the NPOA-SSF

Output(s)

• A published NPOA-SSF
